..F&R is cheap and dirty and does what you need and is quick to update between Access versions ...but it processes every change serially and can be damn slow in a large database ..for a little bit more Black Moshannon's Speed Ferret is like going from a Chevy to a Ferrari ...it is dramatically faster and comes with a lot more options and db security ...but they are notoriously slow to update between versions. ..I've used both and much, much prefer Speed Ferret over F&R ...but ..right now I'm using F&R on A2003 mdbs because Speed Ferret has not been updated for that version as yet ...but as soon as the update is available, I'll switch back. ..hth :) William Hindman ----- Original Message ----- From: "Tesiny, Ed" <EdTesiny at oasas.state.ny.us> To: "Access Developers discussion and problem solving" <accessd at databaseadvisors.com> Sent: Thursday, January 20, 2005 11:04 AM Subject: RE: [AccessD] changing a field name througout the databse >I would suggest using Rick Fisher's Find and Replace, free for 30 days > then $37 for a registered copy.
